I'm just the opposite of you - I don't *care* about the performance under OS 9 as I don't use *it* - except for installing and booting OS 10! :-) I did enable "Quartz Extreme" and most screen operations are definitely smoother. QT6.1 is nice - I've watched the movie trailers on Apple's site, and they play flawlessly. I've decided to leave the card in here and just buy another one for my secondary Windows machine. It's a cheap, fast card that is good enough for anyone except really hard-core gamers. My main machine has an ATI All In Wonder card (TV tuner/vid capture). It's an older model but works just fine. I like ATI cards. Dan _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
